So I’ve played some card based games before, and I’m sure you have too. But this one is also on iOS, so you can bounce between playing on the go, and playing at home. Summoner’s Fate combines both RTS and deck building in a really nice way that felt really great and enjoyable to play. […]
Aftercharge is a really intense 3v3 competitive battle game that shifts the dynamic of your traditional arena style competitive “shooter.” What makes Aftercharge so unique is that it pits two unstoppable forces against one another to see who can outlast the other, or destroy the others resources. One side is invincible enemies, who can’t be […]
Not that you need to know how much more awesome this game has gotten since the last time I saw it (PAX South and PAX east), I’m going to tell you anyways. If you haven’t seen it or played it yet, watch the video below. ADHD: Trackher is a twin-stick Risk’em-Up, where you control two […]

Sky Noon is a blast. That’s a pun, and a really good one if you ask me. Okay, for real though, Sky Noon is a 3v3 competitive multiplayer game in which your character’s arsenal includes a grappling hook, lasso, and an air gun. You’re a hired gunslinger battling cartel fighters in a new take on […]

Another fun racing game I got to check out while at PAX East was Antigraviator. It’s a really fun racing game where speed and agility are a must. You’re able to accelerate infinitely, so you can wind up going around insane curves and what you think is break neck speeds only to keep going faster. […]

I had an opportunity to check out The Path of Motus in the Indie Minibooth on day 1 of PAX East this year, and I wasn’t disappointed. The Path of Motus revolves around the idea of how you use your words. Instead of throwing a punch or a kick, you throw words. Those words have […]

One of the cool things we got to play at PAX South this year was Laser League, the newest game from Roll 7, known for Not A Hero and the Olli Olli series. They are partnered with 505 Games on this project and it looks fantastic. It’s a fast action, high energy competition arena game […]
A Case of Distrust is a game I saw at the suggestion of a friend on the show floor or PAX West last year. Ben Wander’s A Case of Distrust really took me by surprise. It’s definitely a game I might have overlooked otherwise, but the visual style and design choices struck a chord in […]
